I'm only half joking when I say that for 1-2 batters in a high-leverage crisis today I'd bypass Sophia and throw Mia. 

Lol I thought about saying “fuck it, throw Mia if we have to”

    Something that is underrated right now. Mike's call to have the runner steal second during the intentional walk. It would've been easy to just leave her at first...Reese is being walked anyway, what's

Looking ahead (because I’m a fan and not a player…)

I see that the CWS bracket just has a list 1-8, and with Tech being the only team in they are shown at 1.

Do they re-seed the 8 teams that make it? Or does the Regional seeding hold through the CWS, so that Tech, for example, “claims” the 5th seed?

For sure they are all available and we may, in fact, use them all. I am just over Mac Morgan this season. I do think she can be used for a short stint, providing the umpire is calling a low zone.

Oh we definitely can’t start her until we see what the zone is like. If he’s calling it low, give her an inning in the middle against the bottom to the order. Saves 10-15 pitches from TK

The bracket is set. We are aligned with Florida super based on a graphic from last night.

They don’t reseed, so Tech claims the 5th seed spot. Winner of Oregon/Liberty claims the 1 seed spot

Oregon/Liberty winner - South Carolina/UCLA winner

Arky/Ole Miss winner - Tech

 

OU/Bama winner - Tenn/Nebraska winner

Florida/Georgia winner - Texas/Clemson winner


Also a reminder in the WCWS, the loser of the 1-0 game in each bracket flips to the other side.

Our side of the bracket has the potential for 2 SECSEC matchups in OKC day 1 - Texas/Florida or Georgia and Tenn/OU or Bama

Of course, Texas needs to win today and Tenn needs to win the next 2 for that to happen

Damn that was rough.   Crazy that a D1 pitcher, who has shown flashes of greatness in the past, lost it like that with the 25’ pitches . 

That’s all between the ears dealing with pressure and the surroundings.  She was just not focused and tuned in….can’t have that.

Man, I for one can't wait to watch OU cruise to another title at home this year in OKC.  It will be gripping TV.

I will never understand what Mike bottled up and gave her in Fayetteville in 2022. That was magical. But we were also almost weirdly destined to make it to OKC and the finals somehow. The Simpson game 3 win, the clutch Czech pitching and Bella hitting in OKC, OKST clown show on defense giving us a win

Sadly, to this point I don't think Mike understands it, either. Because while as a team we've been successful since then, 99 sure hasn't. For a stretch there I could accept her issue as being a nagging injury or maybe even a tumultuous relationship, but after this long I have to think she just lost confidence and was satisfied with that early flash being her Texas legacy. Hope she still has a few good innings in her, though. We need her.

I think Mike performed some sort of soul or brain swap between her and Dolcini.

Think Katie C needs to be DP. Got a clutch bunt down and she is usually good with productive outs. Think VQ and VH are too swing and miss

Dawgs up 2-0 on Gata, trying to force a winner take all tomorrow

Totally agree. That quick foul popout the other night was a real downer, but in general Cimusz has displayed upside at the plate. Keep thinking VQ will come through with some power, but these moments have consistently been a tad too large for her. VH clearly hasn't been any better. Too bad neither Brister nor Wallace has announced her presence with authority. 

Barbers Hill girl threw an 18 K No Hitter in the 5A Semifinal yesterday…sign her up!

She actually probably would have been money last night, that asshole wouldn't call anything hip height.   They do seem to be more flyball hitters which could be good for a drop ball thrower.

She's going to Kentucky, but I think the Sophomore is better than her.

VQ never saw a pitch she didn't like.  Girl will swing at anything.  VH is Pedro Serano.  She can crush the fastball over the plate.  Anything with spin and bat is very afraid.

Somewhere…somewhere….she lost her confidence.   How and if she can get it back….is the question Mike has to figure out.  I think Mike sees something in her or she’d be gone.

Top 7, 2 on no outs. Georgia got out of that. Impressive 

Haven't been able to watch this year's team play that often unfortunately.

What areas was this team playing better earlier this season that allowed Texas to be ranked #1 ??

Just curious how this 2025 team might be able to get hot, and get on a good run to win tonight and in Omaha...  I mean OKC.  😋

Hook'em !!! 🤘

We pitched a lot better earlier in the season. SEC play looks like it really hurt our confidence in the circle

Honestly, with OU's dominance I doubt we'd ever have been ranked No. 1 had Gasso not been starting almost from scratch with her 2025 lineup and we not been returning so many key players from a 2024 WCWS finalist.

There was just a lot of movement at the top as other teams lost. Tenn, Texas, OU and Aggy all held the spot and rose/fall as they lost series in SEC play

Gasso should have always been given the benefit of the doubt. I'm surprised 4 straight titles wasn't enough to give them the #1 preseason rank

Yes generally all teams avoid playing teams that have been eliminated.

Courtney Lyle ruined that moment with a dumb comment 

Meatball was mangled by one who regularly mangles meatballs. And some people wonder why Reese doesn't get a strike when it matters most.

3 game 7s already schedule (Texas/Clemson, UCLA/South Carolina, Florida/Georgia). Bama, Liberty, Tenn, arky could force some more for tomorrow.

Actually kind of odd that the one west coast game starts at 7 ET but I guess bc Liberty is home team?
